This is exactly what is happening now and I agree Kentuck, it is disgusting.

I grew up living on military bases during peace and wartime.
And we never had all this ridiculous flag waving and flag nonsense on those bases.

There was on flag on base somewhere. But we didn't worship it or drool all over it.

The adults on base were actually defending the flag on a daily basis, risking their lives.
They didn't have time to act out with stupid stunts.
